Minimal Window Managers: Day 1

,----[ Quote ]
| After getting a lot of feedback from the crowd regarding 
| window managers Iâve decided to try a few out. Initially 
| Iâve tried awesome and wmii, and Iâm fairly impressed 
| with both. I do wish I could combine some of the 
| features that I like from each oneâand maybe that is 
| possible.

First impressions of gnome-shell

,----[ Quote ]
| Iâm quite conservative with my desktop usually, I like 
| the default Ubuntu configuration and know it well. That 
| said Iâm enjoying using gnome-shell and intend to use it 
| for a while at least. Iâm looking forward to it 
| evolving, including new concepts and growing more 
| popular. The negatives Iâve noticed I think are mostly 
| down to lack of time. Iâm not sure if itâs going to be 
| âreadyâ for the targeted date of next March and am not 
| sure that it should be â thereâs plenty more to 
| prototype.

A New Development Release Of GNOME Shell

,----[ Quote ]
| GNOME 3.0 will not be rolling out until the first half of 2010, but work is
| already underway on this major GNOME update that is the first to bring some
| radical changes in a long time. One of the major components of GNOME 3.0 is
| the GNOME Shell. The GNOME Shell will begin handling some of the
| responsibilities that previously was done by the window manager and GNOME
| Panel in GNOME 2.xx while offering a modern graphics experience.
